“A strong weather system and southwesterly winds will lead to the development of a layer of warm air aloft which could melt falling snow. Should surface temperatures dip below zero on the highway, higher elevations of the Coquihalla could see a period of freezing rain early this morning,” the statement reads.

Environment Canada is forecasting a 60 per cent chance of showers in Kelowna Monday with snow at higher elevations.
